Actually there's a federal regulation that cameras have to be weighted in the back to increase the odds they will land lens-face=up. (See how easy it is to lie?) |

Isn't that the same regulation that declares toast must fall butter side down? Or do I have that confused with a Murphy law that states the odds of toast falling butter side down increase with the cost of the carpet? -- PeterN |

Take a DSLR and put a lense on it and let it fall out of your hands, let's say 1.5m. It will land on it's back... This is due to the weight balance of the gadget and the aerodynamic will enforce it if anything. Try it your self! -- teleportation kills |
